Those ammo cans down in front are being used as secondary armor? Blow off armor?

Probably like me, just an easy way to carry more ammo. Look at the fenders on my M48. Reactive armor is still a bit in the future. We did hang track blocks from the turret rails, mostly to have them handy for spares and what little they may have helped against RPGs

We all carried a roll of chan link fence and engineer stakes to set up RPG screens when setting up a defensive position
